Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Phase 1: Codes and themes relating to acceptability of screening for perinatal mental disorders These will be themes emerging from focus groups with women around awareness of perinatal mental disorders and acceptability of screening. To be completed by August 2022
Primary Phase 2: Psychometric properties of screening tools for common mental disorders The psychometric properties (sensitivity, specificity, area under the receiver operating curve, optimal cut-off and accuracy) of eight screening tools in Kannada and Hindi will be established among three groups of women: pregnant, post-partum and non-perinatal. September 2022 - August 2023
Primary Phase 3: Point prevalence, period prevalence and incidence (with 95% confidence intervals) of common mental disorders among perinatal and non-perinatal women During the cohort study, prevalence and incidence of mental disorders (depression, anxiety, PTSD, somatisation and suicidality) will be assessed. September 2023 - August 2024
Primary Phase 3: Odds ratios (with 95% confidence intervals) for factors associated with common mental disorders among perinatal and non-perinatal women During the cohort study, risk factors associated with mental disorders (depression, anxiety, PTSD, somatisation and suicidality) will be assessed. September 2023 - August 2024
